Gardens & Root Cellars

Fogo Islanders have grown and preserved their own produce for centuries, a tradition passed down from ancestors who learned how to garden despite the island's climate.  

Explore community gardens and learn about local gardening techniques and ingredients served in our Dining Room. Continue your visit to the unique root cellars used to store and preserve fresh or pickled foods. This activity showcases the connection of our culinary program to the traditions of Fogo Island.  

Combine a visit to Gardens & Root Cellars with Hiking, Biking, or an Island Orientation.
